The international community has warned that food is playing an increasingly large role as a weapon in wars. This innovative exploration of food warfare examines how the use of food, and access to it, can undermine enemies and gain advantage in conflicts. With empirical examples of the dynamics by which both state and non-state actors weaponize food, such as through blockades, sieges, food poisoning, and the targeting of food resources and infrastructure, this book sheds new light on the strategic rationale, tactical horizons and consequences of this method of warfare.
